- Conditions
- Influenza
- Interventions
- Biological: Influenza Virus Vaccine, Monovalent A/H7N9 A/Shanghai/2/2013
- Registration Number
- NCT01938742
- Brief Summary
This is a Phase II randomized, double-blinded, controlled study in up to 700 males and non-pregnant females, 19 to 64 years old, inclusive, designed to assess the safety, reactogenicity, and immunogenicity of a monovalent influenza A/H7N9 virus vaccine administered at different dosages (3.75, 7.5, or 15 mcg of HA/0.5 mL dose) given with and without MF59 adjuvant and without adjuvant (15 mcg of HA/0.5 mL dose and 45 mcg of HA/0.75 mL dose). Subjects will receive two doses via intramuscular injection, approximately 21 days apart. Safety, reactogenicity, and immunogenicity data will be collected at standard time points with safety follow-up to continue through one year post dose 2. The duration of the study for each subject will be approximately 13 months.
- Detailed Description
This is a Phase II randomized, double-blinded, controlled study in up to 700 males and non-pregnant females, 19 to 64 years old, inclusive, who are in good health and meet all eligibility criteria. The study is designed to assess the safety, reactogenicity, and immunogenicity of a monovalent influenza A/H7N9 virus vaccine manufactured by Sanofi Pasteur administered to healthy adults at different dosages (3.75, 7.5, or 15 mcg of HA/0.5 mL dose) given with MF59 adjuvant manufactured by Novartis Vaccines and Diagnostics and without adjuvant (15 mcg of HA/0.5 mL dose and 45 mcg of HA/0.75 mL dose). The A/H7N9 vaccine was made with HA antigen derived from the influenza A/Shanghai/2/2013 virus. Subjects will be randomly assigned to 1 of 7 groups (up to 100 subjects per group) to receive two doses of the A/H7N9 vaccine with and without MF59 adjuvant delivered intramuscularly approximately 21 days apart. The same dosage of A/H7N9 vaccine will be given to subjects at both their first and second study vaccinations. The primary objectives are to: 1) assess the safety and reactogenicity of a monovalent influenza A/H7N9 virus vaccine following receipt of two doses administered with and without MF59 adjuvant; and 2) assess new-onset chronic medical conditions following receipt of two doses of a monovalent influenza A/H7N9 virus vaccine administered with and without MF59 adjuvant. The duration of the study for each subject will be approximately 13 months.

This is inclusive of licensed seasonal influenza vaccines. -Received immunoglobulin or other blood products (with exception of Rho D immunoglobulin) within 90 days prior to study vaccination. -Received an experimental agent (vaccine, drug, biologic, device, blood product, or medication) within 30 days prior to the first study vaccination, or expects to receive an experimental agent other than from participation in this study during the 13-month study period. -Are participating or plan to participate in another clinical trial with an interventional agent (licensed or unlicensed vaccine, drug, biologic, device, blood product, or medication) during the 13-month study period. -Prior participation in a clinical trial of influenza A/H7 vaccine and assigned to a group receiving influenza A/H7 vaccine (does not apply to documented placebo recipients) or have a history of A/H7 actual or potential exposure or infection prior to the first study vaccination. -Plan to travel outside the U.S. (continental U.S., Hawaii and Alaska) in the time between the first study vaccination and 42 days after the first study vaccination. -Female subjects who are breastfe eding or plan to breastfeed at any given time from the first study vaccination until 30 days after their last study vaccination. -Blood donation within 30 days prior to enrollment and within 30 days after the last blood draw (only for a subset of healthy adult subjects - up to 75 volunteers, 19-64 years old, enrolled at the Emory VTEU site, who consent to blood donation for the immunology exploratory assays).
